It is the twelfth and final day of the 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop. Today we are sharing our Christmas trees with you. Since you have already seen mine on Frugal Tips for Gorgeous Christmas Décor, I am sharing another tree that I decorated this year. This glittery winter woodland tree is one that I decorate for my mom each year. This mix of sparkle and rustic add a glamorous yet comforting aesthetic for the holidays.

Glittery Winter Woodland Tree

This tree has a beautiful mix of felt ornaments, natural elements, and glitter accents. The “topper” is actually an oversized twig star with Santa on it. Instead of hanging pinecones, we bought a bag of the cinnamon scented ones. Those are tucked into the branches for a natural element that smells incredible. It all adds up to a gorgeous tree that both grandma and the grandkids love.

What is the last rule of decorating the tree at grandmas? You have to wear a Santa hat while you’re decorating. That’s how the tree gets its Christmas magic.

Why I Love Christmas

You might wonder why I would willingly decorate multiple trees during such a busy time of year. It is because I truly love and believe in the spirit of Christmas. Every year I see people transform into more patient and thoughtful citizens. I see children that still believe in magic light up at every Santa they see. Yes, you will still have some who are mean and hateful but they are far outweighed by kindness and joy. Christmas isn’t about the gifts or chaos of gatherings. It is about spreading joy and keeping magic alive. Decorating my mom’s tree brings her great joy and that is worth making time for.

Thank you so much for following along with our 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop. It has been wonderful sharing all of this Christmas fun with you. This glittery winter woodland tree is a perfect way to end the hop. You can keep the fun going a little longer by visiting my blogging friends in the hop to see their trees. There are so many beautiful ideas, you will be inspired to decorate multiple trees too!
